Holiday Program launched

AFL Victoria is excited to announce the dates and destinations of our first ever Holiday Program.

AFL Victoria’s Holiday Program is a great way to brush up on your skills ahead of the NAB AFL Auskick season. Why not come along with your friends to a Holiday Program for an action-packed day of footy fun before registering for the NAB AFL Auskick season?

The fun and flexible program caters for boys and girls, aged 5-12* and runs from 9.00am – 3am during the April School Holidays.

The program will be rolled out at seven destinations across the greater Melbourne area.

In an inclusive environment that promotes being healthy and making friends, the program is designed to suit kids of all skill levels, from those who are completely new to Australian Football, to those youngsters already mastering our native game.

NO experience is necessary; this is the perfect place to give it a try.

The program is delivered by Level 1 accredited coaches, with a coaching ratio of no more than 20 participants per coach.

Each participant of the Holiday Program will receive a special pack to take home and enjoy. Packs will include loads of exciting giveaways and competitions.

All equipment and resources will be provided but participants are advised to bring warm clothing in case of cold weather and lunch for the day.

Kids are encouraged to wear comfortable gear for being active. If you have football boots bring those and some runners too.

Some familiar faces in the form of AFL stars and mascots may make a number of appearances at the different locations throughout the two week period but are not guaranteed.

*Age restriction: Boys and girls who are turning 5 and turning no older than 12 in the year they register are eligible to register.

Kinder Kickers

To ensure those under the age of five don’t miss out, AFL Victoria has also launched its first Kinder Kickers program.

The program is aimed at boys and girls aged 4-6 years and is designed to introduce them to football in a fun, safe and inclusive environment. The kinder kickers program includes an hour of interactive games based around football.

NO experience or skill is required. Kinder Kickers will be available at Moorabbin City Oval on 14th April 2014.
